Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/quasar/Quasar/issues/664

I haven't shared the client .exe any wheres, but somehow am having random computers connect. How is this possible? I've set an encryption key, and the only client is hosted locally.

This probably means you are using the default encryption key. Please chose a different one and additionally use a different port. There are bots out in the wild who scan the web for the default Quasar port and try to connect with the default encryption key.

Why are bots doing that?
